Here is an overview of the issue:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FOR-113
Summary: [PATCH] Use on Windows 98
Type: Bug
Status: Assigned
Priority: Major
Project: Forrest
Component: Building Forrest
Fix For: 0.6
Versions:
0.6
Assignee: Dave Brondsema
Reporter: Pierrick Brihaye
Created: Mon, 9 Feb 2004 11:25 PM
Updated: Sun, 13 Jun 2004 4:31 AM
Environment: Windows 98 / JDK 1.4.1
Description:
There are a lot of NT specifics in Forrest batch files (@setlocal, %~dp0...) that prevent
them to be run on Windows 98.
It would be nice to have this compatibility :-)
The most difficult part may be to emulate the setpwdvar.bat for NT. Here is a code snippet
that does the trick :
@echo off
echo @prompt set PWD=$p$_ > _temp_A.bat
%comspec% /e:2048 /c _temp_A.bat > _temp_B.bat
call _temp_B.bat
del _temp_?.bat
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
p.b.
